Oahu is also home to world famous Waikiki and the world capital of surfing, the North Shore. Waikiki is the metropolitan hub of Oahu. Many high-end hotel resorts line the stunning Waikiki beach shoreline. It's been a popular tourist destination for many years, offering world class shopping and restaurants for you to savor.

The North Shore of Oahu is the direct opposite of Waikiki’s fast-paced lifestyle. It exudes a quiet and charming ambiance and is best known for its world famous surf spots and pro surf competition—including the Pipeline Pro. On the North Shore you’ll find the historical town of Haleiwa where both locals and tourists alike can enjoy the unique shopping and cuisine it offers.
